---+ Sidewalk Astronomy

It's surprising but true that planets and other bright astronomical targets can be observed from portable telescopes in the light-polluted skies of Pasadena, even when sitting directly below street lights.  Colorado Boulevard provides a perfect venue on weekends for sidewalk astronomy with lots of foot traffic and so close to Caltech.  We're still in the midsts of planning these events, but stay tuned.  There is a group of local amateurs who occasionally do this on Colorado too: http://otastro.org/ .
